I have a small modest swimwear business and am looking into adding bra cups to my suits. I've never done it before and have done a lot of poking around online and found some great information. One thing I haven't been able to find out is how to place the cups in a standardized way. So if I'm making several ladies medium suits, how do I know where to place them?
I'd love to hear any ideas; thank you!

Are you using a commercial swimsuit pattern? If so, there might be an indication of the location of the bust points, sometimes with a symbol of a circle with a crosshair in it.

Contact Ann at Needle Nook Fabrics in Wichita, KS. She has them and can probably give you a source if you need them in large quantities.
